Kevin, on second thought, if you are not planning on bring in an existing "community", and this is your IP. I see no reason why you cannot start this project in the sandbox. When you mentioned that you had a community, I had visions of 10 outside contributors all wanting access to the jakarta commons sandbox. One thing we absolutely are trying to avoid going forward is adding committers via the commons sandbox. That was my only concern, but if this has ben addressed, I'm not going to stand in your way.

Awesome... ok. So does this mean I can go forward with the sandbox? I would like to move code into the sandbox, change the package and source organization inline with Apache policy, and then attract other developers from the Atom/RSS community.


:-) Well, there's a hitch. We can't approve new committers for components which are in the sandbox. You'll have to attract members of the existing ASF community.


I'm just going to go the incubator route... the documentation on the incubator site does seem a bit daunting though. It seems like a lot of work for just a CVS repository ;)

I will probably end up blogging about this process when I'm done. Sort of a Lazy Developers Guide to the Jakarta Incubator.

I'm nothing if not lazy! ;)

I will try to take care of this tonight.

Thanks!

Kevin
